Isaiah 36:13-18 NKJV
Then the Rabshakeh stood and called out with a loud voice in Hebrew, and said, “Hear the words of the great king, the king of Assyria! Thus says the king: ‘Do not let Hezekiah deceive you, for he will not be able to deliver you; nor let Hezekiah make you trust in the Lord , saying, “The Lord will surely deliver us; this city will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.” ’ Do not listen to Hezekiah; for thus says the king of Assyria: ‘Make peace with me by a present and come out to me; and every one of you eat from his own vine and every one from his own fig tree, and every one of you drink the waters of his own cistern; until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards. Beware lest Hezekiah persuade you, saying, “The Lord will deliver us.” Has any one of the gods of the nations delivered its land from the hand of the king of Assyria?

† Shalom †......! Day #304. Do you know that devil's greatest weapon is to put fear into the hearts of every believer? Let's pray. Father, let not fear destroy our hope and our trust in You. We will not falter and be given to the lies of the devil. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!
Folks, fear is an active weapon or shall I say the main weapon that the devil uses to attack the mind of every believer. The devil instills the seed of fear into the heart of every believer, fear if this sickness, fear of taking the next step, fear of failure, and many more. Are you one of them being entangled in the devil's lies? Devil manipulates our mind by inputting negative things, such as our medical report which says that we have a chronic disease and so on. But today, if you are reading this simple devotion, the Lord wants you to know that, there's no any fear that's able conquer you if you are willing to submit to God and trust in Him.
In today's verse we read that how Rabshakeh was threatening the Lord's people, it's almost the same as per what Goliath did. He was ridiculing the Lord's people. He was instilling fear into their mind. He was breaking their spirit. This is what the exact thing the devil does. For example when you try to do something, for example let's say may be a youth conference, and suddenly you fear whether will any youths attend this conference, hows the financial going to be, how this how that... Too many questions and you begin to fear. If you are able to subject your thoughts to the Lord, then you shall see greater works of the Lord. When the devil attacks you through fear, begin to use your spiritual weapons and attack him back. If you dont believe, just give it a try. Do live a defeated life in Christ, but live as a conqueror! Gbu!
Let this day be the day of the Lord!
